Hot Chocolate Truffles are extra-large truffles that are melted with milk to produce a rich, creamy mug of hot chocolate. The only ingredients are chocolate and cream (and maybe a pinch of crushed candy canes for decoration) so the resulting drink has an intense chocolate flavor and a lovely thick texture. It’s a sipping chocolate, one to be savored slowly while the fluffy peppermint marshmallow slowly melts on top.
